The purpose of this study is to find out if performing Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) scans of your brain with adaptive planning during your radiation treatment of your high-grade glioma will help determine how sensitive the images collected of the brain are at detecting the response of the tumor to the cancer treatment. In this study, four or seven MRI…
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety of Lutathera alone in patients with recurrent glioblastoma and the combination of Lutathera with radiotherapy with temozolomide (TMZ) in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GB) and to establish the appropriate dose of this combination. Lutathera is a radioligand therapy, which is a targeted…
Children and young adults with diffuse midline glioma will be treated with Focused Ultrasound (FUS) with DEFINITY microbubbles and neuro-navigator-controlled sonication. The overall goal of this study is to see if the study treatment plan will improve the outcome of participants with diffuse midline glioma, for which no known cure exists, and determine…
The purpose of this study is to find out if the study medicine called EDIT-301 will help in the treatment of Severe Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) and how safe it is to be used in people. EDIT-301 (study medicine) is a new investigational therapy which uses the patient's own stem cells, modifies them by CRISPR technology, and infuses them back to the…
The purpose of this study is to learn about whether the study drug (PF-07209326) is safe and effective in people with sickle cell disease and learn about what the right dose is. We will look at drug levels in the blood, see how fast drug levels rise and fall, and what effects the drug has, all of which are known as the pharmacokinetics (PK) and…
The purpose of this study is to find the best dose of a drug called MTX110 and a contrast agent called gadolinium that can be given safely in children with newly diagnosed diffuse midline gliomas, which is a kind of brain tumor. All patients enrolled in the study will receive infusion of MTX110 and Gadolinium delivered with a pump directly into the tumor…
This study is being done to see if giving your child a lower dose of chemotherapy (drug therapy), than has been used historically in bone marrow transplant, to kill his/her own diseased cells before he/she receives a bone marrow transplant, will possibly result in the permanent control of your child's sickle cell disease. Patients will receive busulfan…
This study is for infants that have been genetically diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) and are currently not showing any signs or symptoms of the disease. The purpose of this study is to see whether ISIS 396443 has any effects (good or bad) on infants with SMA (who do not yet show signs or symptoms of the disease) and to see if ISIS 396443 can…
The purpose of this study is to find out if eteplirsen can help people with the muscle disorder called Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and find out if eteplirsen is safe to take without causing too many side effects. Eteplirsen is an investigational (experimental) drug and can only be used in research studies. DMD is caused by a mutation (a change) in the…
The purpose of this research study is to test whether the advanced perfusion MRI done prior to starting Bevacizumab and a few weeks after starting Bevacizumab can determine your response to the treatment better than the standard MRI performed at typical time points. The researchers want to see if this type of advanced MRI is better or the same as what is…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of a study drug called ISIS-396443 when using it to treat children with later-onset spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). SMA is a neuromuscular disease that causes a degeneration (a breakdown) of the motor neurons in the spinal cord, resulting in a weakening of the muscles in…
The purpose of this research is to learn how to help parent youth pairs work together to help youth with sickle cell disease take hydroxyurea every day as a daily habit. This study is for children and teens ages 10-18 with Sickle Cell Anemia taking hydroxyurea, and their parents (or guardians). Many children and teens do not use hydroxyurea every day. Daily…
Our clinic is currently participating in the Brave Trial, a clinical research study for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). This study is being conducted to learn whether a study drug can improve motor functions in boys with DMD. If your child takes part, he'll receive at no cost: study drug or placebo, study-related procedures, reimbursement for…
Moving forward in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. A clinical research study assessing the safety and effectiveness of an investigational product in people with Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease experiencing muscle cramps is now enrolling. Participation is entirely voluntary. Contacting us does not mean that you are required to take part in this study. If you…
